\n\t\tBack Pain Care\n\t<\/h1>\n

\n\t\tChiropractic care for back pain \n\t<\/h3>\n\t

Chiropractic treatment is a safe and effective treatment for both an acute or chronic sore back. It can work incredibly quickly and a growing body of research shows that ongoing treatment with chiropractic adjustments can help prevent future back pain.<\/p>\n

Spinal manipulation or a chiropractic adjustment helps restore mobility to joints restricted by injured tissue, whether that is a result from a traumatic event like a fall or repetitive stress such as sitting with poor back support. But what is every bit as important is that proper alignment of the body’s musculoskeletal structure, particularly the spine, enables the body to heal itself – without surgery or medication.<\/p>\n

Simply put, every signal, every message our bodies send are carried through the central nervous system (the brain, the spinal cord and the nerves exiting the spine). Chiropractic ensures that the central nervous system is working to its optimal best. And that’s the additional benefit that Chiropractic delivers for back pain, a sore back and even back spasms – ongoing optimal health to help heal faster.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMake a Booking!\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\tChiropractic care for Arthritis\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"Chiropractic<\/p>\n

In our Albany clinic, Chiropractic treatment for Arthritis focuses on two clear and well-established functions.<\/p>\n

The first is to enable the body to move more freely. The second is to provide optimal central nervous system functioning to enable the body to best fight the condition over time.<\/p>\n

Chiropractic focuses on physical manipulation called chiropractic adjustments, which allow your chiropractor to work directly on your joints to enable mobility and reduce pain.<\/p>\n

In addition, the lifestyle benefits of chiropractic include maintaining the body’s alignment and immune system (through optimal support of the central nervous system) which are essential in limiting the devastating effects of all forms of arthritis but especially rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n

Chiropractic and arthritis are uniquely entwined. Whether the cause of arthritis is an autoimmune disorder, endocrine system failure, environmental factors or genetics chiropractic is uniquely placed to help deal with both the physical symptoms and the whole-body health that can help your body heal and yes\u2026 actually help prevent arthritis.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\tChiropractic Care for Sciatica\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"Chiropractor<\/p>\n

Common causes of sciatica include: misaligned vertebra; herniated or bulging vertebral discs; pregnancy; childbirth; slips and falls; arthritis; difference in leg length; diabetes; constipation; and even sitting too long with that wallet in your back pocket!<\/p>\n

Chiropractic treatment is the ideal resolution for sciatica and sciatic pain. But because the cause of your sciatic nerve issues and your experience is unique to you, your chiropractic treatment plan will be tailored to your specific situation. <\/p>\n

Once we’ve established the likely cause and the intensity of your symptoms we’ll put in place a treatment plan to get you quickly on the road to recovery.<\/p>\n

There are two key components as to how chiropractic can help you to complete pain relief and ongoing pain-free existence. The chiropractic adjustment itself helps restore mobility to joints (spine and hip) where the injured tissue is restricting movement.<\/p>\n

Just as importantly, by properly aligning your musculoskeletal structure and specifically the spine; we allow your body optimal access to heal itself, now and into the future.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

Sports injuries can benefit significantly from a Sports Chiropractor.<\/p>\n

While you can get a sports injury at any time; in many cases, chiropractic is able to help you not just heal more quickly but also stabilise your musculoskeletal structure to help prevent future sports injuries.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tChiro for Migraine Treatment & Headaches\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"Chiropractic<\/p>\n

Tension headache or migraine is one of the most common reasons to visit a Chiropractor.<\/p>\n

There is a wealth of research now available to suggest that not only does chiropractic ease the frequency of tension headaches or migraines – it actually can help ease the symptoms when you’re under attack.<\/p>\n

One of the pieces of evidence of chiropractic’s effectiveness for a migraine or tension headache is that 80% of respondents in one study attributed their headache to stress.<\/p>\n

Researchers believe that chiropractic helps reduce the body’s physical response to stress through optimised neuro-musculoskeletal pathways as a result of regular treatment.<\/p>\n

And in addition, research suggests that the greatest cause of headaches is muscle tension in the neck. Our sedentary lifestyles and hours spent in a fixed position can increase joint irritation and muscle tension through the neck, upper back and scalp – all of which effective chiropractic can help relieve.<\/p>\n

The New Zealand Report – a 20 month Government Commission on chiropractic concluded that the majority of people who suffered from spinal misalignments had their headaches reliever or condition improved through chiropractic treatment.<\/p>\n

And follow up studies found that many were without recurring headache pain two years later! So if you regularly suffer from a migraine or tension headache, then chiropractic is very likely to help you.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\tChiropractic Care for Hip Pain\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

\"Hip<\/p>\n

With age, your hips may start to hurt due to muscle degeneration or accumulated stress or a misalignment of the spine. Reducing the accumulated stresses through chiropractic care can be beneficial toward reducing pain in your hips<\/p>\n

In many cases, chiropractic provides immediate and long term relief. Understanding the central nervous system is complex but the first thing to realise is that only some of our nerves actually ‘feel’ pain.<\/p>\n

What this means is that in many cases the area we feel pain, is actually the consequence of a misplaced spinal alignment.<\/p>\n

Because the goal of chiropractic is to fully align the spine and the neuro-musculoskeletal system, in many cases chiropractic provides immediate relief for hip pain and hip flexor pain – even that hip pain at night only! Chiropractic provides help to both mobilise the joints and to ‘fire’ the central nervous system to enhance support for the body’s natural healing process.<\/p>\n

There are numerous studies supporting the positive effects of chiropractic for hip pain and hip flexor pain, covering many different causes. Your hip pain chiropractic treatment will be tailored to your specific situation to provide both short term and long-lasting relief.<\/p>\n\t
